Thursday will be a major day of games not only for college basketball fans, but bettors and those in bracket pools — who still have a shot. Gonzaga, Arizona, Duke and Villanova were among the top seven picks to win a national title at the beginning of the bracket selections, per the NCAA. From that list of top seven, Kansas is the only other team still playing as both No. 2 Kentucky and No. 1 Baylor have been eliminated.
